A Place They Call America

And hey, in a place they call America He'd plant the seeds and hope grew wild And a dream was born with every child And hey, in a land they call the beautiful His hope was ever bountiful In a place they call America

She had her baby young Her boyfriend had other plans He left for the promises She stayed for the day's demands

And she swears to her baby "You'll live a better life, so help me, so help me..."

And hey, in a place they call America She plants the seeds and hope grows wild And a dream is born with every child And hey, in a land they call the beautiful Her hope was ever bountiful In a place they call America

And hey, in a place they call America We plant the seeds and hope grows wild And a dream is born with every child And hey, in a land they call the beautiful Our hope was ever bountiful In a place they call America
